Abstract
A case of spontaneous neonatal renal vein thrombosis is presented. A 1 week old, 36 week gestation, male child presented with gross haematuria and a large right flank mass. Investigations including intravenous pyelogram, ultrasound and venacavogram indicated that the diagnosis. The child was clinically well, with normal renal and clotting function. No predisposing cause could be found. A conservative approach to treatment was undertaken in view of the normal renal function and no evidence of consumptive coagulopathy or pulmonary emboli. The child remains well, but may require nephrectomy in the future.Keywords
